Wanna draw a beautiful Disney style portrait for a friend or a loved one because it makes a great present? Wanna learn more about drawing and colouring in Photoshop? Wanna just practice and learn a new portrait technique? You're in the right place!

In this class I'm going to break down in 3 easy steps the process of drawing a cartoony portrait starting from a reference picture.

No or very little experience is required for this, as I'm going guide you step by step, although you do need Photoshop (download the trial version here: https://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/free-trial-download.html) or a similar digital painting software to follow me through the colouring process. 

At the end of the class you will have created a beautiful digital artwork of yourself, a friend or a loved one and I'd love to see the result of your hard work! Actually, I'm going to look through all the work and I'm going to give shoutouts to some of you guys on my social media (*EDIT* I've recently changed my Instagram handle - you can find me here as @art_bymemo) so you will not only improve your skills as an artist but also may receive a nice little boost of your social media presence!

Are you ready? Let's get started!

ps. You can find more of my art checking out my social media (link in bio), buy it on my online store and read my ramblings on my blog! Get in touch!
